Naah, dont agree with that. Both need a defensively strong CM alonside them to flourish. Anyways, not the thread for this. Quote me in the Kroos one if you like.

If Kroos joined Real then he'd be lost in the wilderness of ex Real Madrid players I.e Van der Vaart, Sneidjer et al. They are stacked in midfield, he'd be a superstar with us
The problem with that is, there is no backup to defence. I know they would be a better outfit going forward, but you still need a solid defensive midfielder playing that
Putting the "S" into "Transfers"
Its too late for Schweinsteiger, that ship has sailed, plus he had his chance a few years ago.
It's never too late for a player of that quality - especially given what we have as midfield options currently. He is still a big time player.
Hell no, our current midfield pool consists of Carrick, Fellaini, Fletcher and Cleverley. I'd take a 35 year old Pirlo if he was available.
What makes you say that?Hard as nails.
Shaw won't be announced till after England go out.
Add a quality centre back coming into their prime (Hummels?) and a younger central midfielder (Carvalho? Pogba?) and you've got yourself a deal!

Not having followed Spanish football particularly, has Carlos Vela suddenly transformed himself? Only he was shockingly awful when he was at Arsenal before.
16 goals and 12 assists in the league, despite playing a bit wider. The regular game time has done him a lot of good.
He's been really good this season. £3.5 million seems dirt cheap. I'd argue that he's already better than Giroud and Sanogo.

His eyes are staring into my soul.
Never thought he'd be a Gryffindor, looks more like a Slytherin tbh.
Mancini at Southampton maybe?
Just 48 hours later...
That's quality.
Scarf wearing nobhead!
RE Vela, Word is Soceidad didn't want him permanently, hence the option to Arsenal became available, can anyone confirm that? Surely it was the player wanting out?
Was job.
Good call.
I think this guy is on the banned list....

@Genius Me!
I think it's up for discussion who is actually banned.

Can't people adequately sift through what's nonsense and what isn't from the tweets people put on this forum.
He's a world class player and a vital component of the Bayern team - what more do you need to know?
I meant to question Peanut Head, I was agreeing with you.
Two bad things about that.
1) He'd destroy Southampton like he did Galatasaray. I mean he couldn't even win the Turkish league with Gala!
2) There's no way in hell he'd sell us Shaw. The man hates us I say.
It's probably not up to him. They have chosen to sell him and he'll be made aware of that IMO.
He also won the Premier League not so long ago so he is proven in this league, even if he did have a ton of cash and mercenaries to do it. That would be a huge pull to a club like Saints.
Going by some fairly reliable reports, everything is in place for this to be completed with the exception of a medical. Lallana and Shaw will leave, they might try to keep Lovren alright.
